Jarhead: Law of Return

Why would a four star general be wearing a gunnery sergeant stripes on his arm?

If you are a war movie fan this one will not disappoint. I have to laugh at all these reviews criticising the weapons or army stripes not being accurate - guys let me elucidate for you; your average viewer would not know a sergeant stripe from an a-wipe you have to laugh at these reviews.... really???? - ITS ONLY A MOVIE! Who watches a movie and looks out for things like that is bizarre! I watch a movie to be immersed int he plot and story not to see if sergeant Maloney has the correct trigger on his AK-47 or how tight his army troosers are cmon, to rate a movie on this is nonsense and IMDB should remove these reviews as they are just plain fatuous!

Well what do we get for our shillings - Oodles of action, some decent cgi blood splatters and explosions but some terrible dialogue which made me cringe at times. It actually has a pretty decent cast and the acting was good which makes up another Jarhead movie;and as good as Jarhead 2 in my opinion.

The music though is rather Jarring (pardon the pun) and too loud for the soundtrack and it is clear they were trying in the later stages to go for a Black Hawk Down style ethnic Israeli music backtrack to accompany the action which was better than the overbearing rap and rock & roll in the first half.

All in all its actually an above average terrorist war movie so if you are a war movie fanatic like me give it a try as it will not disappoint so gets a fair 6/10 from me.

Whomever (if anyone) was hired as military adviser should be hung by his heels. I am not going to list all the military screw ups as there is no time.

This is movie has a boring plot, boring acting and is a big waste of time. I've seen lil' bits of "Black hawk down" in it. No Drones, no AC-130 . The director was lazy and he did not care even to see what military capabilities are in surveillance and gunships if not hire a consultant.

I agree with many reviews stating inaccuracies and limited acting abilities. But it was not as bad as some say. Some of those 1 and 2 rated reviews are because some people think guns and soldiers are bad. Just discount them. However, there are many anti-semites out there also. I was amazed at the anti-semitic comments. Shame on them. Discount their views also.
